Asynchronous instruction day materials will be posted online and will be able to be accessed using a computer, laptop, tablet, phone or other mobile device. Elementary schools also will have printed copies available.
Students, families, staff and community members will be notified that HCPSS is implementing an asynchronous instruction day the same as all other inclement weather notifications:
The Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) did provide local school systems with the option of using five synchronous instruction days during inclement weather.
HCPSS does not have a 1:1 student-to-device ratio and so is unable to provide synchronous instruction equitably to all students.
The Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) opened a pathway for local school systems to repurpose up to three inclement weather days as asynchronous instruction days for the 2022–2023 school year.
If a device should be lost or stolen, families should report the incident to their student’s school as soon as possible, and be ready to include details such as date and time of incident, last known location of the device, and a copy of a police report, if applicable.
Lost and stolen devices and power adapters are not part of the one-time forgiveness and families may be charged at the applicable tier rates. Full details are available online.
